I have a very "eager" Yellowface Greywing Sky Blue Cock and Green Dilute Hen that I have decided to give a first try with and I was wondering what kind of chicks I can expect from them. I'm not certain if I have their mutations right or not. Here are photos of the pair maybe you all can correct me if I'm wrong and let me know what I'll get from them. (I did use a flash on these two pics, but all in all the colors are still very close, both just very soft pale colors).

Yellowface Greywing Sky Blue Cock and Green Dilute Hen

 

Very interesting. We need to consider Dominance in recessives here.

 

Greywing is domminant to Dilute so the outcome will be.

 

50% yellowface

all the chicks will be Green Greywings but split blue.

 

I'll need to check but I think they all will be split Dilute as well

Looks like your hen is ready to lay already... looks like egg bum.

DAZ -

 

Thank you for the info DAZ. I have one question though, if all chicks are going to be Green Greywing then how do I know what ones are yellowface because Green birds have yellowfaces anyway?? I'm a little confused on that part.

 

Also buy the pictures I provided do you agree with the mutations on these two birds?
